And most importantly breed like rabbits.
let’s also open up our universities, labs, space and military programs, and research facilities as “outreach” to muslims seeking western technical expertise without any desire to assimilate into western culture
what could possibly go wrong
I think we need to add a big ditch from the Mississippi River over to Texas. Just in case there is drought in Texas and flooding along the Mississippi.
Call it a “shovel ready project”. Might take a lot of people manning shovels though...
Put “Little Boy” on display at the center of the crater would be nice. I think it beats the black rock they have now.
Somebody suggested that first we take the black moon rock first, then grind it up and pour it into a concrete mold the shape of a cross, and put it atop the new World Trade building in NYC.
Just common sense.
But actually do it and you can guarantee an EEOC investigation and fine.
I have never worked in a processing facility either but I watch those how it is done things on the Science channel and I’ve never seen one that they don’t thoroughly wash anything that they are processing.
Good points; e-coli is one of the things that you actually can get from just touching something touched by someone else whose hands were contaminated.
Another interesting thing is the place where it began. I have read that there are a lot of chemical and pharmaceutical research facilities in Northern Germany, and I was talking to somebody who wondered if perhaps it was an escaped mutant virus from one of the plants. Or if it was created by a biologically knowledgeable German jihadi...
The fact that it combines a supertoxic form with one that enhances its speedy colonization in the gut is pretty strange.
As far as E. Coli and Salmonella the obvious answer (at least for me) is irradiation.
Five hundred Rads of gamma radiation and you need not worry about any kind of biological contamination causing any kind of sickness. And there is the added benefit that the food will remain edible for many times longer.
Personally I would pay a couple of extra bucks for irradiated food (especially meat).
Ya think, duh. There's a reason why we started putting safety seals on products way back 30 years ago when Tylenol was tampered with. Of course, that's at the consumer end where only a few items can be poisoned. Get in at the manufacturing end where millions of the item can be poisoned and shipped out before it's detected. All those illegals working in meat processing and canning companies are in the perfect place. Remember, we're getting in a lot of OTM illegals and what about all those ME'erners who are over staying their student visas. It's just a matter of time.
That’s why I was thinking of the processing plant rather then the farm. They could add it after it has been inspected and washed.
“horizontal gene transfer” is another term for “genetic manipulation”
yes, Hamburg Germany is home to one of the world's select few Level 4 Biowarfare containment labs, with work on tropical diseases. One of these pathogen's contributors is prevalent in Central Africa.
But to this layman, from what I read, e coli is apparently so easily manipulable, experiments describing how to transfer genes are high school science fair projects.
The Chinese sequenced this monster's DNA within 3 days - someone knows or suspects if it is likely manmade or a natural mutation. There seem to be a lot of posting about techies arguing whether this is a “new” pathogen or re-emergence of one seen in the past, or a fairly simple logical mutation of one seen in the past. Even one of its toxic e coli predecessor strains has been suspected of being artificially engineered.
If it is a natural mutation, has it sickened or killed its host? A lot of people hear “e coli” and immediately suspect manure or human feces contamination. Shouldn't something so toxic sicken or kill its animal or human host? This should not be too difficult to determine with all of Europe's investigative assets. Are there dead pigs, chickens cows goats or sick waiters or field hands or processors somewhere in the field-to-shelf chain?
Or is there one lucky “typhoid mary” walking around somewhere in a migrant camp in Spain or a food warehouse in Germany?
This makes a great suspense story, assuming you are not one the unlucky 520 mortally ill people (identified to date) fighting to survive HUS.
I would think water supplies would be more susceptible to sabotage, and the effects more immediate and widespread.
I like it.
A conduit / aqueduct would be a better choice.
Brings to mind “Soylent Green”.
I thought the tex-mex border was already a conduit bringing in aguaducks (they’re wet and they’re foul—aguaducks) by the millions.
My plan will give them something to do.
This has been well knowns for a long time.
The surprise is that they haven’t done it yet. Our food supply is not secured at all.
